The Be the Change-Now With Dinner! (Posted On: Thursday, October 13, 2016)

The Be The Change Film Series, presented by Royal LePage
Locations North, is now in its 9th year. This year we are offering dinner
before screenings as well as online ticket sales.

Last year the Series moved from the Gayety to the Simcoe
Street Theatre (across from the Collingwood Library), with 2 screenings per
night at 5:00 and 7:30. The audience loved the new screening times and the
welcoming local marketplace/food-oriented venue, so we are back for the second
year in a row.

Join us before the film in the marketplace and enjoy a
fresh, local and healthy meal prepared by Farm to Table Market and Kitchen.
Vendors have farm-fresh groceries of many kinds available for sale and Creemore
Coffee Studio and Earthlinks (CCI environmental student group) have gourmet
snacks and beverages, too.

Eating you Alive is, appropriately, the first movie of the
series, airing twice on Wednesday October 19th. The film's directors
speak with everyone from medical experts to chefs to Hollywood stars about how
whole-food, plant-based nutrition can help us to take control of our health in
the face of a North American crisis the likes of which we've never seen before.

"We know that food is part of what attracts our big crowds,
so we opted to start with a film in line with that," says Christy Deere, one of
the principal BTC organizers."We believe that offering a fresh, local and
healthy meal is going to be a big driver for our viewers." Deere also notes
that - for the first time-tickets are available for purchase on sale, either
individually for $8 or $40 for all six films at our website.

The BTC Film Series is designed to unite the Collingwood and
surrounding communities around a variety of environment-centric issues.
Provocative, carefully chosen films are selected around themes such as
conservation, health and climate change.
